ok..when/how did you and your husband/wife meet?
it's just i've been going out with my bf for 3 years and have heard stories of people meeting and 14 with a happy marriage...btw i am 14
My mom and dad met at 15 and 16 and they are still married (both in their 50s).
I met my husband in 99 in a pool room when I was 18 (btw he was 35). We married when I was 21. We have had ups and downs like every one else, age gap did not change that. This coming April will be 10 years we have been together and this Dec. will be 7 years we have been married.
Now my husband's parents met when she was probably 14 or 15 and he was 23 or 24. When she was 16 she got pregnant and they got married. They have been together ever since.
Anyone who tells you it won't last forever just because you're young, don't listen to them. I am living proof :). I met my bf in high school at 14. He was 17. Six and a half years later, we're still together. We have been through some difficult times but we're doing great. We live together now, go to college together, and have a very strong relationship. We will probably get married after college sometime. So yes, it's totally possible that you and your boyfriend will last, even though you met when you were both young. Good luck to both of you!
I met my husband a little over two years ago in an internet chat room. I thought he was the most annoying girl ever. He mentioned he went to a community college near my house and I told him I was going to kick his ass at a local Taco Bell. Well, he showed up to Taco Bell with huge side burns and a penis, so there went that.
We've been married for six months today. :D
My mom met my dad, thirteen years her senior, when she was fifteen. They were together for twenty-something years and only got divorced a few months ago.

What? Like, in hand or something?
I met my wife when we were significantly older than I was 14 (try 28 :) ) through a friend who set us up.
I met my husband the first day of high school (we were both 14). We had the same first period class--he liked to sleep during it a lot and I was the overbearing, must-get-all-A's type that would give him my notes in a later period class the same day when he was more awake, so he could copy them.
When we became close friends I started trying to keep him awake during class by tormenting him. :D (Well no, not really, but we would carry conversations while Baker was talking...then our friend Drew would catch the blame for telling us to be quiet, hahahaha) We started dating sophmore year when I was 16, and he 15. Got married three years later, and we've now been married for a little over a year and a half.
He's mad because I'm going to turn 21 before him and he might not be home when he has HIS 21st birthday, which is in August (he's getting deployed again in either May or September, depending on where they're going). All I have to say to that: neener =P
I met my guy through a social group. The group met a brewery, took a party bus to a Detroit Tiger game, and bussed back to the brewery. I figured, hell, if I didnt meet anyone, I would still have a good time. Sure enough, I met him and we go to a Tiger game every year around that time that we met. The last time we went, in August, he proposed. But, we're not that young. I'm 32 and he's 40.
I met my husband on a blind date at an olive garden. I was 22 and he was 28. We talked so much we didn't even eat, and that is saying alot because neither of us are talkers. I went home and told my mom that he was the one. We've been married for 8 years now and have four kids.
I met my husband at a church conference when I was 15 and he was 22. We started dating 6 years later, dated one year before marrying, and have now been very happily married for 17 years.
i met my husband when i was 10 the boy next door.aahh started going out when we were 18 got married when i was 23 and have been married for 23 years ... not bad ... kadjax
My hubby and I met online, in a chatroom. I was 17, he was 33. I was in Poland, he was in Canada. Fast-forward to now: we've been married for 3.5 years, and we're one of the happiest couples you could possibly imagine. I cannot begin to describe all the hellish nightmare I had to go through just to be with him, but it was worth it. My parents obviously were trying to keep me home, my friends all of a sudden decided that I was being delusional "'cause internet relationships just don't work" and were trying really hard to split us up. Then of course there were the stupid immigration procedures! Oh, and I had to drop out of university, too :D
But it was all worth it! Don't worry about your youth, holbee. I was young too, but I knew he was the one, and I knew that I would do everything to be with him. And damn all the friends and family who tell you otherwise!
I have never had any regrets. Not even for a minute :)
I met my husband on July 15,1990. We were in Florida on vacation! (We r both Canadians!) I was 16 he was 17. We married on July 31 1999. We now have two beautiful kids! We r happy!
We had alot of break ups through the years....one month on one month off but we never let go of each other! It will be a long and windy road but if it's meant to be: it will be! I knew within two weeks of meeting him that he would be my hubby. It took him longer for he couldn't believe that i would be his first of everything!![]()
My ex-boss's husband set us up. He called me and we met up for lunch the next day at a cute little cafe downtown. We met and 2 years later to the day we were married. Our 1 year anniversary is in just a few days!!! I am the happiest I have ever been!!! Oh yeah, I was 24 and he was 31. Not a huge age difference, but sometimes our taste in music/movies differs...he says I can't appreciate the slow stuff b/c I was brought up w/ MTV. Oh well ![]()
i met my fiancee online, I was 18 and he was 22 almost 23... we started dating in September 2002, and got engaged in April 2008, and getting married June 2010 :)
My husband and I met in 2000 when I was 20 and he was 21. I started working at a restaurant he was working at and before I could get through training, we were dating. We were married last year and are very happy. When we met, neither of us had marriage on the brain, but we just couldn't let each other go. Our second year together was rough, we broke up a few times, but he just had to come to terms with the fact that I was the one, even though maybe he wasn't really ready yet. He did, and we are very happy now. He often looks back at that time, when he almost lost me, and is grateful he wised up and things didn't turn out the other way.
It is not completely obsurd to think that you two will make it, there is a couple I went to high school with that met very young and are married today. In the end, I truly believe that if it is meant to be, then it will be. If something happens, don't let it get you too down. You are young and there is a whole world out there to experience still.
My husband and I met online when I was 28 and he was 29.
I wasn't even interested in marriage or dating when I met my husband. It just kind of happened and now I can't remember what I did before I met him.
I met my husband through my college roommate. She kept telling me her really cute brother was coming to visit. At the time I was 18 (he was 27) and not interested in getting married. He came to visit for the summer and ended up staying because we became inseparable. We dated for about 3 years before getting married. We've been married for almost 4 years now, and it still feels like we're still dating because we have some much fun together.
met in school started dating 3 days after I turned 16 I am 30 now.. been married ten years..
I met my husband on a dating website. I stood him up for our first meeting on a technicality. (And I was nervous...ugh..I hated first dates!) We met at a coffee shop about a month later. I thought he was beautiful. We were married ten months later. We have been married 16 months now. I still think he is beautiful.
Wow! most of those stories are sweet, i suppose every marriage has a story behind it :)
kadjax, kelleigh and armandleg's stories are especially amazing,thanks!
im starting to believe in those cases in paticular, if you kind of grow up with the 'right' boy you become really strong!??!
